TRILLO AUQUI, Gerardo. BUENOS AIRES AND THE PACIFIC WAR: SUBALTERN ACTORSIN THE OCCUPATION OF LIMA. Diálogo Andino [online]. 2015, n.48, pp.55-64. ISSN 0719-2681. http://dx.doi.org/10.4067/S0719-26812015000300006.
The War of Pacific was an event that has been marked in the development of the history of Latin America, with more zeal in the countries involved, some more than others; however the historiographical discourse has outlined the ways of thinking, making believe that nationalism and patriotism are the only discourses that have prevailed in understanding as infamous war; aside and almost hiding the significance that the conflict had on various subaltern groups in Latin America; those groups of individuals not being directly involved in the conflict in the rise of arms or face to face confrontation, were also embroiled in the daily happenings of the events taking place in the battlefield. So, we study a particular case: the public protest made for the communities of foreig-ners in the city of Buenos Aires, after receiving news of the occupation of the Peruvian capital by Chilean troops in January 1881; emphasizing its response to the news about the killing of foreigners, organizing a Indignation Meeting that caught the attention of the Buenos Aires newspaper for those months.
